There are 4 jacks and 13 clubs in a standard, 52-card deck of playing cards. What is the probability that a card picked at random from a standard deck of playing cards is a club or a jack?

16/52, or 4/13.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, since we know that the question is asking for the probability of a club or a jack, we know that we have to add the two probabilities. The first probability is that of picking a club, which is 13/52. The probability of picking a jack (be sure not to overlap; don't double count the jack of clubs) is 3/52. Adding these two gives us 13/52+3/52=16/52, which simplifies to 4/13.
